This town is worth visiting for its beautiful historic buildings, its Good Friday procession and its excellent food and wines. The square in the atmospheric old town is so impressive it has been declared an official national monument. The 15th century Santo Domingo monastery has finely carved choir stalls. The 16th century Fuente Grande square is paved with stone and features galleries and washhouses. Come during Easter, especially Good Friday, to see the statues of the saints being carried through the streets accompanied by ceremonial guards. Try the local wine, Manchego cheese and the game dishes. It's 50km from Toledo, the local festival is from September 7-11 and there are plenty of hotels and restaurants. The public bus from Toledo leaves from the Avenida Castilla-La Mancha. For times, tel. +34 925 215 854.
